Master of Science in Hospitality, Hotel Management and Tourism

Students are expected to familiarize themselves thoroughly with the regulations of the University, to accept responsibilities for course requirements for their degrees, and to make inquiries in case of doubt. It shall not be the University's responsibility should complications arise because of failure to follow regulations and requirements.

Regulations will not be waived nor exceptions to requirements made on a plea of ignorance. Students, therefore, should become familiar with all of the information related to their program of study contained in the on-line university catalog.

Personal announcements sent to students through A&M-San Antonio’s e-mail are the official means of communicating course and university business with students–not the U.S. Mail and not other e-mail addresses. Students must check their A&M-San Antonio e-mail accounts regularly, if not daily. Not having seen an important A&M-San Antonio e-mail message from a faculty member, chair, dean or other University administrator is not accepted as an excuse for failure to take important action.

Texas A&M University-San Antonio was created in 2000 to address an educational need in south San Antonio. The Texas Legislature asked The Texas A&M University System to establish a center that would offer junior- and senior-level courses in south San Antonio, an area that has been historically underserved in terms of higher education. The University, then known as Texas A&M University-Kingsville System Center-San Antonio, was approved by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board in January 2000. On May 23, 2009, Gov. Rick Perry signed Senate Bill 629 that created Texas A&M University-San Antonio as a stand-alone university.
